When reading/writing block devices, Cygwin emulates Linux, providing
a byte-exact file position, albeit the underlying device drivers don't.
Unfortunately this only worked correctly for reading. The raw_write
method failed to revalidate the buffer after the read-modify-write
cycle in case len is not a multiple of the sector length. This in
turn resulted in lseek reporting a wrong file pointer.
Also, fix a condition for invalidating the buffer after writing from
a remaining read buffer.

Rounddown incoming addr on a page boundary. Without this, we may end
up with a fork error for private, anonymous maps. The reason is, we
use VirtualAlloc in this case which will potentially overcommit if
addr is not on a page boundary. This isn't taken into account in
bookkeeping, but fixup_mmaps_after_fork will eventually stumble over
this when trying to reproduce the copy-on-write pages: VirtualQuery
returns a region reaching beyond the supposedly allocated address
range and from there it goes downhill.

Workaround a bug (or undocumented behaviour) in LCMapStringW:
It's documented(*) that the cchDest parameter is a byte count with
LCMAP_SORTKEY, but a character count otherwise. But the docs don't
state what happens if you combine LCMAP_SORTKEY with LCMAP_BYTEREV.
Tests indicate that LCMAP_SORTKEY treats cchDest as byte count, but
then LCMAP_BYTEREV treats it as char count in the same call. So the
latter swaps twice as much bytes in the destination buffer than the
byte count it returns, which potentially results in writing past the
end of the given output buffer.
Solution: Don't specify LCMAP_BYTEREV in the LCMapStringW(LCMAP_SORTKEY)
call, rather byte swap afterwards.

The original dll_init code was living under the wrong assumption that
dll_dllcrt0_1 and in turn dll_list::alloc will be called for each
LoadLibrary call. The same wrong assumption was made for
cygwin_detach_dll/dll_list::detach called via FreeLibrary.
In reality, dll_dllcrt0_1 gets only called once at first LoadLibrary
and cygwin_detach_dll once at last FreeLibrary.
In effect, reference counting for DLLs was completely broken after fork:
parent:
l1 = dlopen ("lib1"); // LoadLibrary, LoadCount = 1
l2 = dlopen ("lib1"); // LoadLibrary, LoadCount = 2
fork (); // LoadLibrary in the child, LoadCount = 1!
child:
dlclose (l1); // FreeLibrary actually frees the lib
x = dlsym (l2); // SEGV
* Move reference counting to dlopen/dlclose since only those functions
have to keep track of loading/unloading DLLs in the application context.
* Remove broken accounting code from dll_list::alloc and dll_list::detach.
* Fix error handling in dlclose.

There are certain, very obscure scenarios, which render the Windows
CWD handle inaccessible for reopening. An easy one is, the handle can
be NULL if the permissions of the CWD changed under the parent processes
feet.
Originally we just set errno and returned, but in case of init at
process startup that left the "posix" member NULL and subsequent
calls to getcwd failed with EFAULT.
We now check for a NULL handle and change the reopen approach
accordingly. If that doesn't work, try to duplicate the handle instead.
If duplicating fails, too, we set the dir handle to NULL and carry on.
This will at least set posix to some valid path and subsequent getcwd
calls won't fail. A NULL dir handle is ok, because we already do this
for virtual paths.

This patch alters the behaviour of dll_list::topsort to preserve the
order of dlopen'd units.
The load order of unrelated DLLs is reversed every time fork is called,
since dll_list::topsort finds the tail of the list and then unwinds to
reinsert items. My change takes advantage of what should be undefined
behaviour in dll_list::populate_deps (ndeps non-zero and ndeps and deps
not initialised) to allow the deps field to be initialised prior to the
call and appended to, rather than overwritten.
All DLLs which have been dlopen'd have their deps list initialised with
the list of all previously dlopen'd units. These extra dependencies mean
that the unwind preserves the order of dlopen'd units.
The motivation for this is the FlexDLL linker used in OCaml. The FlexDLL
linker allows a dlopen'd unit to refer to symbols in previously dlopen'd
units and it resolves these symbols in DllMain before anything else has
initialised (including the Cygwin DLL). This means that dependencies may
exist between dlopen'd units (which the OCaml runtime system
understands) but which Windows is unaware of. During fork, the
process-level table which FlexDLL uses to get the symbol table of each
DLL is copied over but because the load order of dlopen'd DLLs is
reversed, it is possible for FlexDLL to attempt to access memory in the
DLL before it has been loaded and hence it fails with an access
violation. Because the list is reversed on each call to fork, it means
that a subsequent call to fork puts the DLLs back into the correct
order, hence "even" invocations of fork work!
An interesting side-effect is that this only occurs if the DLLs load at
their preferred base address - if they have to be rebased, then FlexDLL
works because at the time that the dependent unit is loaded out of
order, there is still in memory the "dummy" DONT_RESOLVE_DLL_REFERENCES
version of the dependency which, as it happens, will contain the correct
symbol table in the data section. For my tests, this initially appeared
to be an x86-only problem, but that was only because the two DLLs on x64
should have been rebased.

indicate that the idea was to increase the buffer size, but, this code
must have been written long ago because Windows has used autotuning
for a very long time now. Please do not manually set SO_RCVBUF or

The output shows that the RTT from my machine to the iperf server is
similar in both cases (about 170ms) however with the patch the
throughput averages 129 Mbps while without the patch the throughput
only averages 11.7 Mbps. If we calculate the maximum throughput using
Bandwidth = Queue/RTT we get (212992 * 8)/0.170 = 10.0231 Mbps. This
is just about what iperf is showing us without the patch since the
buffer size is set to 212992 I believe that the buffer size is
limiting the throughput. With the patch we have no buffer limitation
(autotuning) and can develop the full potential bandwidth on the link.
If you want to duplicate the STC you will have to find an iperf server
(I found an extreme case) that has a large enough RTT distance from
you and try a few times. I get varying results depending on Internet
traffic but without the patch never exceed the limit caused by the

The termios code doesn't handle erasing of multibyte characters
in canonical mode, it always erases a single byte. When entering
a multibyte character and then pressing VERASE, the input ends up
with an invalid character.
Following Linux we introduce the IUTF8 input flag now, set by
default. When this flag is set, VERASE or VWERASE will check
if the just erased input byte is a UTF-8 continuation byte. If
so, it erases another byte and checks again until the entire
UTF-8 character has been removed from the input buffer.
Note that this (just as on Linux) does NOT work with arbitrary
multibyte codesets. This only works with UTF-8.
